Pay 2 win is a common criticism on warmane but its actually "pay to catch up" since the server has been around for about 10 years. And if you want to pay to catch up, thats on you, other people play the game for getting the stuff "legitimately" in any case it doesent hurt anyone if someone buys some gear instead of farming it for lack of a better term imo. Warmane has struck a nice balance. And also the server is free for everyone except they get into a queue when it reaches 12,000 players online, premium member do not afaik so thats another plus with their model you can argue.
